Is the cord hidden, like within the pole, or does it run down the pole on the outside?

the power cord for the led lights is indeed hidden inside the umbrella pole. you will have a power cord running from the base of the pole to your power source.

I use my umbrella in the center hole of a patio table. When used this way the port where the power cord inserts in the pole is below the surface of the table and is not visible from above the table.

I'm using it outdoors without any issues. Don't recall any marking on the cord as to how it should be used.

You can drop cords behind this neat little piece. All our cords are hidden. We drop down to floor and plug into wall outlets nearby.

There are three prongs to enter the dirt. (one goes in the front, one in the back, and straight down). On mine it would force the pole to stand away from the wall. It comes it two parts, so you might be able to force it so that the hook is facing out while the prongs are facing side to side so it could sit flush, but I think that would mess up the connection between the top and bottom half. Hope that helps

We've had one of ours for over a year and have always used an extension cord for it--running it under the porch and plugging it into an outside outlet. We've had no issues at all!

No, it does not. I hang my cord over the pole hanger lip when it's not in use without issue. It's probably easier to do that than use any built-in storage feature anyway.

It hangs below. I always plug mine into the bottom plug so you can use the top plug for other things.

yes! the power cord goes in the back, there is a space for it to hide away! It's great!

The heater is enclosed in the pan (the entire pan is heated). You can run the cord down through the base. I have been very pleased with everything. I would suggest ordering the "summer pan" as I did.

Cord is located on the body of the device. It is long enough to get through my table. It does pose a tripping hazard and I am trying to figure out a way to route it along an arm of the umbrella, rather than along the pole. If you had power beneath the table- all would be OK. As is, you need some gaffing tape to avoid trip hazard.

The cord is unshielded. It works great going directly into a camera, but if you put a long lead (like for a boom pole) it will hum/buzz.

The one we have is used in a small house my husband built for a cat who will not come in. The porch has no roof. The cord is against the building, somewhat sheltered by the roof overhang and seems to be fine. If you have doubts I would check with an electrician. It works great.

The cord is on the bottom with a wrap-around storage design around the base. I can't get this to match up (not that I've tried really hard).

There are two holes on the pole one on top and a second at the bottom. Cable goes thru the center pole...

Yes, the cord is visible. You can cover the cord in a 'cord-mate' if desired, to keep the cord straight and flush with the wall.
